We all know St Patrick was Welsh Merely co-incidental that his day often falls whilst Cheltenham is on , so may as well make it the whole week Think of it in terms of the former "christmas" recently crowned mid-winter festival.   |

Most of the prize money goes to owners so it would be interesting to see a breakdown of that. Rich Ritchie is American for instance, while in UK, the majority of flat horses are owned by foreigners. Michael Tabor and Derrick Smith are English, so depending on shareholdings, only around 30% of Coolmore prizemoney stays in Ireland.
